Reporting could be stronger. With the API you can do a lot of reporting, but it is not built in very robustly. License management could be improved; currently in hybrid format, you can get a total license count but not how many of those... more»

The file restore functionality and remote backup for remote users is fantastic. It doesn't take a lot of resources and is invaluable when someone needs to restore files that they have lost or encrypted. Or, if they are just upgrading, we can... more»
